What are Dental Implants?
A dental implant is an artificial tooth root, made from titanium, placed into your jaw to hold a replacement tooth, bridge, or denture. Because implants fuse to your jawbone, they provide stable support for artificial teeth.
Benefits of Dental Implants
One major benefit to implants is that they are not susceptible to decay. However, they are still vulnerable to bone loss so proper hygiene is very important.
The secure fit in dental implants help the dentures, bridges, or individual crowns, placed over the implants feel more natural than conventional bridges or dentures.
